Notes

Mash all grains in 3.5 gal @155 60 min; sparge with 3.25 gal @170 15 min, boil 75 min, remove hop spider, add DME, top off water to 5.5 gal, return to boil 5 min, chill and transfer to fermenter. Ferment first 2 days at 65, gradually increase to 72 for 2 weeks

Did a blind taste test w/friends vs. Cape Cod Porter and this won hands down - CC was in a growler, so a little flat vs. my 22oz bottle conditioned version so maybe a little unfair but this recipe will hold up to any good commercial porter.
